What Our Members Say:

I’m so thankful for the teachers and leaders here that have poured into my children and helped them to go out into the world with a solid foundation in Biblical teaching.

What Our Members Say:

People say this is a small church. That’s because it is a disciple-making church. People are equipped to go out from here to share the gospel.

What Our Members Say:

This church is making an impact in our schools. On Wednesday nights, there is not an empty seat in our youth room. These teens are receeiving truth and they are going out to share with their classmates.

What Our Members Say:

During COVID, a friend of mine drove by the church and saw that there were people here. She called me, and we visited FBCA together, when other churches were still closed. Just after that there was a big storm and Pastor Brent called to check on me, and I wasn’t even a member. I had a tree down and he sent men to help with that. Through their service I felt the love and community that exists at FBCA.

What Our Members Say:

I have the privilege to teach kids on Wednesday nights. It is a great testimony to the parents in this church that your children are being taught the Bible at home. They ask incredible questions and they know the gospel. They are a blessing to me.

What Our Members Say:

I’m thankful for how this church helped my children come to faith in Jesus Christ. The Sunday School teachers, VBS leaders and all the workers helped raise up my children in Jesus.

What Our Members Say:

I’ve been next door. I’ve been to the next state and I’ve been to countries abroad. There is not a missing component of the Great Commission that we are not fulfilling. It is the “policy” that we go and do what God has called us to do.
